Good cables for my rear speakers

Hi,

I'll be happy to receive some advice on decent long cables for my rears (Jm Lab electra 905). I have moved to a bigger house and now need a pair of 45-50 feet cables for the 905's which are part of a HT setup. I would like to spend between $100 and $250 on decent cables (the 905 are very good imo). If it makes any difference, for the front speakers I am using Transparent Super XL.

Any input will be greatly appreciated....

Regards,

Raanan

You want thick , as in 10 gauge wire . I forget whether I used Sound King or Parts express but ran them through my ceiling when I finished my basement . Then look for a pair of Walker High Definition Links on Audiogon, and you will be a happy camper. But think Thick !!

Hi,

Thank you for all of your comments. I think I will go for one of the cheaper alternatives that you've suggested.

Check out the AudioQuest GR-8 cable:

A 50-foot pair will cost you about $260.00. Not a bad deal.

If you want to same some cash just go get a roll of monster cable. 40 bucks for 50 foot roll. Not the cheapest but not overly priced, besides rear channels dont exactly have a very demanding soundtrack, i guess unless you listen to alot of multichannel music or just have money to burn there is not too much of a point in worrying about it.

just my humble opinion of course!
